He surpassed 600 wickets on the very ground that was witness to a defining moment in his career; the place where he bowled the 'Ball-of-the-Century'. He almost bowled it again to Strauss in the last test match. It was only befitting that the ground was a witness again to another glorious achievement by this man who brought alive the leg-spinner clan that was dying a slow death in cricket.

Out of a lean patch he couldn't have asked for a better knock to come at a better time.166(215) I'm lost for words! Captain's knock? Only time will prove!

What a delivery to get Hoggard out of the last ball. Perfect! He brought back his team in the game after not such a great day in field.

He got his expensive test match figures in a longtime. Batsmen getting almost 4 an over off him. Went wicket-less, luck was not his side, especially when he had the century maker bowled at 41 and the delivery was a no-ball!

Am I being too cryptic? Come on folks watch the Ashes to get the answers!

Life...

For someone who loves being organized and planned in advance, life has taught that one can have none of that how much ever one wants to:-)

I never wanted to live abroad, I tried every possible way to avoid it but now I've completed 3 years of expat life in Dubai.Mumbai, India- My city, my home, my heaven, my love, my lovely country, I don't know how I've survived these years away from you!

I'm trying to get back to my blog to write back about my life and my experiences and yes my thoughts!
